Shut Up & Write!Âź East Side Columbus
Join us for an hour of writing! Weâve discovered that itâs strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if itâs true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, March 25 at Streetlight Guild.
Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.
**SCHEDULE:**
6:45ish - Quick introductions
7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour
8:00 - The End
**OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing.
**BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild!
**WHAT SHOULD I BRING?**
Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you!
**OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:**
* **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space!
* **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels.

Friday Night at Junto - French Conversation Group
Friday Night French Conversation Hour
Bonjour tout le monde!
(English Below)
Je vous propose une soirée, ce vendredi qui vient, à l'hÎtel Junto à Columbus. 19hr. 20 Mars (Vendredi) 2026.
C'est trÚs bien située avec de l'espace extérieur et intérieur, un feu, un café (cafe se ferme à 19h; arrivez tot si ca vous interesse), un resto, et un bar.
Le parking est payé est juste en face au musée des sciences COSI. Il y'en a aussi dans les rues mais un peu plus loin.
Vous n'ĂȘtes pas obligĂ© d'acheter quelque chose, car l'ensemble de l'espace c'est vraiment un grand lobby et de l'hĂŽtel, mais c'est cool.
J'ai parlé avec le management et ils sont ravis de nous accueillir, mais il n'y a pas de place particuliÚre réservé pour nous.
Ce sera Ă partir de 19h jusqu'Ă ?
Moi, je suis Brandon. J'aimerais que ce soit un évÚnement mensuel et si l'espace ne vous convient pas, on peut discuter d'autres options.
Je vais porter une casquette bleue et blanche qui dit "Québec."
Venez nombreux!
A tres bientot

Hello everyone!
Itâs been a long time since weâve had a Friday night French meetup.
I suggest that we meet at the Junto Hotel in Columbus this coming Friday, 20 March (friday) 2026 at 7PM.
Thereâs a great spot with both outdoor and indoor areas, a cafĂ© (which closes at 7 p.m., come a bit early if that interests you), a restaurant, and a bar.
Parking is paid and is located right across from the science museum called COSI. There is additional free and paid street parking around at varying distances.
Itâs a bit expensive, but you donât have to buy anything since the area is really just a large hotel lobby. It's nice though.
I spoke with management, and theyâre happy to welcome us, though thereâs no specific space reserved just for us.
Itâll start at 7 p.m. and go until whenever.
Iâd like this to become a monthly event, and if this space doesnât suit us well, we can discuss other options.
Speaking and understanding French well is ideal but there may be learners there as well.
Iâm Brandon. Iâll be wearing a blue and white cap that says âQuĂ©bec.â
Come find us.
